An Event Presenters Guide to Making the Most Out of this Holiday Season

The holiday season means a lot to different people. For an attendee, it is the most entertaining time of the year, while for an event presenter, it happens to be the most revenue-generating season. However, with a sequence of events happening one after another, things can go haywire, turning the most profitable season into a nightmare. Here’s a comprehensive guide an event presenter should use to make the most out of this holiday season.

1. Plan your Events Well Planning is an important aspect of our lives. When it comes to events, it’s nothing different. Since we’re talking about the Holiday season here, you may have multiple events that you’d like to schedule depending on the event dates. Whether it’s Christmas, Halloween or a local Oktoberfest, start planning early. Plan the timing well for your event. Let’s say if you’re planning a Halloween event for kids, change the time accordingly. Always plan your venue depending on the weather for that season. If you’re in the United States, the holiday season is chilly. While it is snowy and beautiful, your attendees will prefer to attend an event indoors for long hours. On the other hand, if you’re in Australia, the holiday season is in summer. Plan an outdoor event at the beach or by the pool to beat the heat.

3. Estimate Correct Ticket Prices Once your budget is planned and you know approximately how many attendees are expected, you can calculate the cost of the ticket. There are two things you should consider while planning the cost of the ticket. One, plan the ticket price in a way that it covers all the expenses including emergency and two, sell tickets online for free by adding the ticketing fee to the cost of the tickets. That’s our “Pass On Fee” feature, we’re talking about. To know more, read our complete blog on “How To Price An Event Ticket in 3 Easy Steps”

5. Performance Customization With recurring and multiple events, setting up each one on the event ticketing system can be a tedious task. Our online ticketing system lets you set up events easily. Once you have added an event, you can simply edit the same event and add the future event details in it. That saved time, right? Moreover, if you have already used Yapsody for your holiday events last year, it becomes even more simpler for you. Use the “Copy Existing Event feature” and make required editions including date and time changes and you are ready to start selling tickets in just a few minutes.

8. Find the Odd One Out Remember those puzzles, where you’d squint your eyes, focus and find the odd one out? But with our event ticketing system, you can be stress-free no matter how massive your event is. Be it your local Oktoberfest or a Christmas wine tasting festival, our YapScan app can easily scan and validate the tickets. With our QR code technology, it’s impossible to create duplicate tickets, as each ticket is assigned with a unique code to make the entry and exit a seamless process.

9. Track your Expenses What happens when you have back to back special occasions in the same month and you can’t celebrate it on one day? It simply means more expenses. Similarly, with the holiday season just around the corner and multiple events scheduled back to back, it can lead you to go overboard on your expenses. Keep a track of how much you spend on each event. You can save a lot when you make use of event ticketing offers. At Yapsody, we are promoting the holiday season well in advance so YOU can leverage these offers and make the best out of them. Check out our offers page to know more about our ongoing offers.
